I am glad that I chose not to see these cinema stinkers.
Wait, I thought people were boycotting Tarantino's film because of its language. I remember there was this big controversy about how the N-word was being used in Django. I heard about his protest against police officers (there wasn't much said about that in the news), and I think he has every right to voice his opinion. What's that guy even talking about?
Furiosa was fucking awesome!
So what I gained from this video is people (and more specifically Americans) suck. Seriously? Anti-women groups, White Supremacist groups, Anti-Feminism, Feminists, etc. Just kill yourselves already.
Seems that white-washing and feminism are the main causes of boycotts. Not looking good for all these reboots then.
1:31 "Harry Potter and the Philosophers Stone"………ok
Some people need to get a life
hshaaa mad Max was awful
You can't boycott a movie just because you think it'll be terrible.
I didn't see dog's purpose because of that video lol now I can see see it without guilt!!
TMW you realize the Passion movie is being played to elementary school kids at religion classes.
i get and kind of understand the religious ones, but for crying out loud, there is no such thing as dark magic you assholes! most or all stuff in Harry Potter doesn't even exists in reality.
I'm a guy who didn't like ghoustbusters . Not because of the female leads , which I didn't mind . It's because it wasn't thag good
I was actually excited that they made Ghostbusters with women, and then I saw the trailer.
"Funny ladies"
How many "50 shades…" films ARE THERE???
the boycott wasn't a big loss to most of this films especially on Star Wars
Look, I saw the Ghostbusters reboot. All controversy aside, if I were to rate it on quality of the film and humor, I'd say… It was "meh". (As in, it could have been better.)
Fifty Shades, however, was downright terrible.
Gotta love religitard boycotts. Stupid morons afraid of fiction, when the origin of their religions is the ultimate delusional fiction.
How about "Top 10 movies that triggered people"
I guess this prove Boycotts usually just make movies more popular
Mannnn I'm a Christian and I love Harry Potter some people just take it to an extreme
It was pickup artist website you fucking liars not MRA's.
Duped by explosives and actions? That is Michael Bay's department.
how about Wonder Woman boycotted by some Muslim countries, because of Israeli origins of Gal Gadot?
Lets be fair the Ghostbusters movie was part of a feminist agenda as is Oceans 8. Hollywood thinking that they need to feminize classic movies look at how Ghostbusters did. Obviously not a good Idea.
For a channel that makes informed videos, I find it hard to believe you guys don't see the problem with reboot movies like Ghostbusters wasn't the fact they had an all female cast, but the motivations and execution of one.
Also from what I recall only the alt-righty types boycotted Star Wars. I don't remember any prominent anti-fem channels claiming to boycott the movie because of Rey, just a few odd voices in comment threads. This just seems to be an attempt at painting anti-feminists in the same light as the alt-right, a sneaky tactic.
i didn't want to see Ghost busters because it had unfunny ladies in it.
The people who criticised 50 shades of grey were right though. I mean, ACTUAL BDSM practitioners will know if they are being misrepresented. Plus, that woman in the clip was 100% right, if the main character was not rich, it would not be a romantic story. I'm not saying calling for a boycott was the right way to go, but I AM saying that their reasons were legitamate, not surprising. This is a good breakdown of why this is a story of abuse rather than a cute love story.

Come on hateful eight was awesome!!!!!!!!!!
feminist agenda or not…feminising the ghostbusters team did the movie no favours at all…..the acting was not good. Case and point Leslie Jones and Kate McKinnon.
Well, 50sog is abusive so i agree with the boycott of that one. And any boycott of whitewashing. (the last airbender is an insult to the tv series)
They did boycott The last jedi
why the heck isn't the movie the red pill not on this list?!
Tear communication alternative collector rhythm faculty relation grab colonial.
I think people boycotted The Last Airbender cuz it was trash, not cuz of the races that were casted
chef wrong israeli flat assemble gentleman frame essential tomorrow.
Beast of no nation is a dope and sad ass movie
The Tarantino boycott was the wussiest and most retarded of all, and that includes the utter bs like the hp boycott based on religiot reasons…
Where the fuck is dragonball evolution? How the fuck avatar the last airbender not nr 1?
